SCANNING and DIGITAL COPYWORK

Use the above quick links for this page.

Scanning

Our scanning services provide all your needs from scanning your personal film onto CD's for your home use up to scanned outputs for your company for billboard sized commercial prints. Scanning has for the most part replaced the optical copywork procedures that were used in the past. With digital scanning procedures it's now possible to correct errors in original images, to manipulate or retouch images for other needs, to make composites of many images and text materials, and to restore images to their former beauty. Scanning is ideal for cataloging purposes of old negatives, transparecies, and photographs. And, of course, scanning is required for e-mailing and web use of your images. At Kula Photo we offer 3 basic levels of scanning for our clients:

  • LOW-RES scans (300 dpi @ 4x6) - These scans are ideal for internet use and print proofing up to 5x7 or for file purposes.
  • MID-RES scans (300 dpi @ 10x15) - These scans can be used for high quality printing up to 16x20 in size.
  • HI-RES scans - These scans are generally 300 dpi at the required output size needed. These scans are only required for print outputs above 16x20.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The LO - MID - HI resolution nomenclature on our different levels of scanning does not refer to the quality of the scan but rather its output usage. A low res scan is not a low quality scan and, in many instances, can be used over the mid and hi res scans saving you job costs.

                    Uncut Roll Film Scanning
Uncut roll film, either processed by us or supplied by you, can also be scanned to CD at considerable savings to you. If you are unsure whether you will require your film scanned to CD when intially having our lab process and proof them, you may request that the film remain uncut for future scanning possibilities. We offer a
LOW-RES scan of roll film, which is comparable to the above low-res scanning and sized at 300 dpi @ 4x6, and a HI-RES scan of roll film, and sized at 300dpi @ 10x15.
